farmers must typically react to things in the spur of the moment. those wanting to become farmers must work under a seasoned farmer or take vocational classes to gain knowledge and experience. working outside in all weather conditions is a part of this job. those wanting to work as a farmer should be prepared for not being able to control the weather. with today’s technology, however, there have been advancements such as irrigation systems and vents. they can withstand droughts that can help combat weather crises.
knowing how to use and repair equipment is an essential part of being a farmer. mechanics who can repair farm equipment are typically expensive and the work will take time. budgeting, organizing, time efficiency, and monitoring the market are all skills that will prove beneficial. farmers are typically their own boss so they need to be self - motivated.
farms can be composed of all crops, livestock, or a combination of the two. many farms are passed down from generation to generation. those who want to start a farm, but do not have generational property can get their start by working on others’ farms and saving up for their own.
choose the correct answer.
what is an essential skill for farmers in terms of equipment?

• advertising farm equipment
• repairing farm equipment
• acquiring the most advanced equipment

Explanation:

The passage states that "knowing how to use and repair equipment is an essential part of being a farmer" and that mechanics for farm equipment are expensive, so repairing farm equipment is an essential skill. Advertising equipment is not related to equipment use/repair, and acquiring the most advanced equipment isn't a skill (and the passage doesn't emphasize advanced equipment, just using/repairing).

Answer:

B. repairing farm equipment
